aerobat95 Posted March 17, 2013 Author Report Posted March 17, 2013 So I put the ad for this on barnstormers.com and get a call today from a blocked number......so this guy make an offer and then wants to pay COD.....seemed shady to me......does anyone pay COD anymore? Quote
N601RX Posted March 17, 2013 Report Posted March 17, 2013 I've used UPS COD recently as a buyer. The seller suggested it. I handed the UPS driver a bank check and he handed me my box which I opened immediately. I remember a couple of your post looking for a used 430 a while back, did you decide to go with one of the new models? Quote
KSMooniac Posted March 17, 2013 Report Posted March 17, 2013 I would not do a COD deal. I talked on the phone with my buyer and got a wire transfer. Sent from my ADR6425LVW using Tapatalk 2 Quote

Asking 7,200. I will have pictures and more info after I get home from work Ray I am also looking at doing the same you did: Get a 430W for my bird when the price drops a bit. As N601RX said, why do you sell it now? Any bad experience? I recall your posts inquiring about the CDIs etc. Regards, Yves Quote
aerobat95 Posted March 22, 2013 Author Report Posted March 22, 2013 Unit is sold....I am still interested in one but just dont have the funds to do all the mods that I am wanting.....for now the GX-50 will have to do. I just don't fly in the IFR environment often enough to justify it. Who knows maybe I'll look at the IFD440 in the future....

Alan Fox Posted March 23, 2013 Report Posted March 23, 2013 The only partys that get my goods before funds are in and cleared are Lasar , and my avionics buyer.......Dont get scammed.... Quote
N601RX Posted March 24, 2013 Report Posted March 24, 2013 Unfortunately they are a few buyers out there who will buy something like this and then remove internal parts from it to fix their non working unit with and then place the bad parts back in your unit and notify you that it arrived dead and want to return it. With electronics its almost impossible to prove. I suspect someone pulled this on me on ebay a while back, but have no way to prove it other than it worked perfectly when I sold it and when I googled the buyers name several people had problems with him.

All of my Avionics auctions , specify a 14 day return policy , but ONLY if shipped directly a factory authorized retailer / installer .... I have never had a problem in over 500 transactions... Quote
